Verdict

THE NINJA (6) was in the money two runs ago then was about the mark again last time over 1m at Charlton, finishing 10 metres from the winner in second. Meets a comparable field and he is a strong winning hope. COME ON BILLEE (4) finished second last start over 1 ¹/16m at this track, beaten a nose, after also filling a minor placing at the previous appearance over 1 ?m at Globe Derby Park. Good enough to put himself in the winners' stall. SWEET LUCY LOU (8) was unplaced two starts ago then things went wrong last start when she broke and finished 25 metres away in fourth over 1 ¹/16m here. Drawn to enjoy a cosy run and rates a live chance in a similar assignment. SANTA CASA LEVI (1) should not have any excuses from the favourable draw and rates a top-three contender.
